The Super SFIV Super Thread (4-27-2010)

My question is....you've posted your opinion about the game in another thread here, plus i personally know you dont like it from our IM sessions, etc, but this these 2 posts plus the 3 replies to the 3 ECT2 threads (@ UMK, CMK & MKE).....We know how you feel about the game, but why?? You know I love ya bro nohomo but these 5 posts were not needed at all....

I think what it is, is that I really wanted to like SF4. I think it's obvious how utterly disgusted with it I am though. Combine those 2, plus the impending release of Super, and it's making me angry at Capcom again because I want to like Super as well. I know I won't like it, but that doesn't stop me from initially wanting to. I guess you can kind of liken it to being a Jets or Mets fan... you WANT your team to win, no matter how bad they are, even though you know your team is going to lose and let you down. The difference is, this time I'm actually making some noise about Capcom(and if you notice, I didn't even disagree in the Superbowl Thread about the Jets not making the Super Bowl) because of how bad the game is, and, also how the masses of people are letting SF EX4 go because there's no EX in the name. I can go on, but I think the SFEX2 video in one of my posts pretty much speaks for itself.(I actually meant to make that and another post one post but I didn't realize till too late, LOL)

Well, it's the #1 selling Fighting Game of all time, so it obviously can't be that bad.

Just because something sells well doesnt mean its any good. Popularity and quality are 2 different things. Its not even close to being the best SF, but its the best new fighter of the all the series out.

In my opinion, the only thing that really matters when determining what a "good game" is, is skill gap. Sure there's other aspects, but none that really matter. As long as the dedicated talented players can destroy everyone else not above or equal to their level, the game is solid.

A little birdie just wrote to inform me that the final four characters for Super Street Fighter 4 will be revealed between Feb. 18 - March 11, 2010.

This somewhat fits with an earlier story that these characters would be announced in the next week or two, but this source and timeline are more reliable.

The person has asked to remain anonymous, but they've provided this site with great information in the past, so expect to officially know who the final four characters are in Super Street Fighter 4 in about a month or less.

Jeff Gerstmann, who works at GiantBomb.com, received a boxing glove and rose from Capcom and posted a picture of it on his Twitter account (below), this of course looks a lot like Dudley's boxing glove and the rose he throws to taunt his opponent.

While this isn't official confirmation Dudley is in Super Street Fighter 4 — it's about as close as you'll get to it.

Dude the game is just completely boring. Seriously the game is, first person to attack/rush down is most likely to lose. Its a turtle fest as soon as the other player gets that ultra.
When I play, I turtle, I win most my matches too cause its so easy to break some players links by mashing out sort cuts (which have ruined the game all together for me). jump int mash SRK, cause with option select (also very gay), the game basically hand you either a block and if available a SRK. so if you jmp into someone you have 1 of 2 options, dont fuck up your block string, or bait out that srk. or what ever reversal move there is.

I don't disagree. I hardly play SF4, it just doesn't keep my attention. I will be playing SSF4 a lot more though.
